This weekend was my weekend off! It was a lot of fun. I really don't want it to end!
Friday, June 1: I was looking for someone to hang out with but it just seemed like everyone was busy. Then Haley called me and asked if I wanted to hang out! I went to her house where we got together with her friend, Margaret. We ran up to Michaels because I had some craft inspiration. Then got McFlurries at McDonalds. Then we just went back to her house where we talked and played with Clove, of course!
Saturday, June 2: I actually slept in until almost 9 on Saturday! I was proud of myself because I've been waking up around 5:30-6, which is before my alarm! I wanted to do some crafts again and go to the store but again I couldn't find anyone to go with me! But I knew I had plans later so it did not get me down!
Saturday night I got together with my friends Sarah and Katelyn and Katelyn's boyfriend. It was so great to see them. We were in the same major so it was nice to talk with people going through the same situation as me. We first went to Arnold's Bar and Grill. Katelyn wanted to take us there because we are all history teachers and Arnold's is the oldest bar in Cincinnati.
Later, we headed over to Rock Bottom where my friend, Tom, met us. It was an overall great night. I need to hang out with them more often, even though I'll be leaving soon! Well, the night was good until Sarah realized she lost her keys which she still has not found!
Sunday, June 3: Today Tom and I went to Summerfair, an arts and crafts fair at Coney Island. It's actually kind of funny that Summerfair happened this weekend because out of the blue I looked up craft fairs that were going to be in Cincinnati this summer and there happened to be one this weekend!
Before we went we got breakfast at Bob Evans. Then we headed over to Summerfair. We got there pretty early which was good because by the time we left it was getting really crowded. But that doesn't mean that it wasn't crowded because it was! I am a very indecisive person and Tom and I together are the worst! After walking around the entire fair and even walking past the same booths several times. We decided to leave.
We weren't sure what we wanted to do afterwards. It was either go home or think of something else, which is like pulling teeth for the two of us. Luckily, Tom had the idea of going to the Cincinnati Art Museum. I was actually surprised he came up with this idea and it was a good one because I haven't been there since my freshman year of college. We spent time walking around and I took pictures of some of my favorite art pieces and the interesting ceiling work. Please don't judge my picture taking abilities. I know I'm terrible.
Is it just me or do other people feel weird about art museum employees following you around? I mean, I know why they are there, but sometimes I feel uncomfortable being watched so much. I could never be famous!
It was a fun weekend off, and I really wish I didn't have to go back to work. Two more weeks until my next weekend off is too far away!
One of my regrets is not going to the Cinci art museum when I lived in Cinci- not that I can't still make a trip, of course :)
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about being followed around...although it is kind of exciting to be considered a potential art thief, lol.
